I see some of you Euros have a less than correct opinion of the greatest country in the universe.

I feel we must educate you. Here's a video.

You're probably a victim of the Mercator projection ComaDose. Canada is larger than the U.S. but not by much really (Alaska is fucking huge and makes up for most of the difference), but the Mercator projection makes us look twice the size.

tl;dr Gerardus Mercator was a moron


Turns out trying to smash a globe picture onto a rectangle doesn't work out that well.

indeed

a triangle would've worked out much better for him I think


Several triangles.

I think most Americans don't even know what May Day is.

We do have a labor day, but it's in like September or something I don't fucking know.

I was going to ask why you have a public holiday, but then I remembered - Europe

Mayday is the opposite of a public holiday, at least in Seattle. All the anarchists come out to play and hold up the bus lines.

I feel like we should dedicate this May day to advancing the views of American Imperialism.

Just want to confirm that you mean Russia selling Alaska was stupid (I don't agree actually, the U.S. would have seized ownership during the Russian Civil War anyway), and that you aren't under the impression that Canada ever owned Alaska.

edit: I see. Back to school son.
